Question 6

Is the application process the same for applicants from countries outside the UK?

Accepted Answer

International applicants need to submit a UCAS application and an additional questionnaire.
Each year the University conducts interviews in certain overseas countries. If you would like to be considered for an interview in one of these countries an earlier application deadline may apply.

Question 7

What's the most important part of my application?

Accepted Answer

Every application is assessed holistically – Admissions Tutors consider all of the information available together before making any decisions. No part of an application is considered in isolation; for example, a student’s performance at an interview alone doesn’t determine the outcome of their application.

Question 8

Do international students need an English language qualification?

Accepted Answer

It is essential that their English language skills are good enough for them to undertake an intensive and challenging academic course that is taught and examined in English.
If their first language isn't English, they may also be asked to achieve a specific English language requirement as part of the conditions of their offer.

Question 9

Is there an age requirement?

Accepted Answer

Although there is no minimum age for admission to Cambridge, the vast majority of undergraduates are 18 or older when they begin their studies. You are considered a mature student if you are over the age of 21 when you begin your course. When admitted, all students must demonstrate that they have the maturity and personal skills to cope with university-level study and that they will be able to fully benefit from the course.

Question 10

How important are extracurricular activities?

Accepted Answer

University admissions decisions are based on academic criteria (ability and potential), and admissions officers expect to see evidence of students' broader engagement with academic interests, such as reading and other explorations relevant to the course for which they've applied. Extracurricular activities that have no bearing on the course will not improve a student's chances of being accepted.
